The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

I don't think that this is enough. In many cases, it is important to deal
with security problems quickly, and visibly.

Quickness means that a non-maintainer release may be necessary; bug-reports,
though public in principle, tend to be somewhat private exchanges between a
user and a developer. It can take some time before it is noted that a
developer isn't responding.

Visibility means that CERTs, linux-security, relevant usenet groups etc.
need to be informed quickly and accurately, and that the website is updated
with this information.

I think security@debian.org is the most reasonable place to report security
problems.
